found that urban neighborhoods that are majority Black and Latino have fewer pharmacies per capita than white majority neighborhoods. The company also has opened about 100 mini drugstores focused on health and wellness and featuring store-brand merchandise. Walgreens started testing these stores in 2019 and plans to add more this year.
